Should drivers over 70 hand in their keys ?

[castellan]

Maybe some of it has to do with people who have no interest in cars at all they just see it as a means of trans port, they just get behind the wheel and are oblivious to all around them.

How many idiots I have come across who talk and gin around and have very little concentration at the task at hand.

Just last week a old dude I was in the car with was talking and paying bugger all attention at all but plodding about 40 km to 55km in a 70km he did not care at all as he thinks he is not speeding so he is fine, he has all day to just bugger around. I just put up with it, but I could of said shut up and watch the road, pay more attention instead of just buggering around in ignorance, it's a bloody road, not a sheep station for crying out loud.

I have had people of all ages do like such.

Bad habits lead to more bad habits.

People who drive through stop signs with no regard that really gets on my goat, and If I said do you know you just drove through a stop sign ? and they say, did I, with no real regard, that's it ! they should be off the road directly.

Rolling through a stop sign is one thing but not slowing down at all is much much more serious. even drag racing on the street could possibly maybe be better than that because if they are not running stop signs or lights at least they could be in charge of the situation. but the hairy fairy is off with the pixies no.
